My Thoughts on the new 'Excommunicated Warrior' Book

My Thoughts on ‘Excommunicated Warrior’ by Nick Koumalatsos

For me personally, book reviews are generally more difficult to write up. Maybe it’s just because it’s not as sexy as a suppressed short barreled rifle or high-speed piece of tactical gear. Not the case AT ALL with Nick Koumalatsos’s new book, Excommunicated Warrior. Through this book, Nick covers the 7 stages of transition when leaving […]

Special Operations Member Gear Layout for a 24 hour Operation

Special Operations Member Gear Layout for a 24 hour Operation

A few things in this photo that I quickly noticed were the snacks (Pop Tarts & Stinger bars), stripped MRE and baby wipes. You can tell, just from those three items, that this dude has done this a few times. It’s little things like that, that come from real-world experience. Other than the obvious, some […]

My Favorite Black Diamond Outerwear & Gear

My Favorite Black Diamond Outerwear & Gear

We’re at the end of November and many of us are already experiencing the colder weather associated with Fall and Winter. With that comes different outerwear that can deal with the harsher climate. One of the brands I’ve relied on for a while now is Black Diamond. Known for their mountaineering equipment, I never really gave […]

Hook & Albert Weekender Bag: A Bag for the Capable Gentleman

Hook & Albert Weekender Bag: A Bag for the Capable Gentleman

In the Marine Corps, when I either traveled home or changed duty stations, in order to transport my uniforms without them wrinkling, I had to use the traditional garment bag. The traditional garment bags fill their intended role very well, but they are limited to only that role and tend to be big and bulky. […]

Become the Capable Citizen this Christmas

Become a Capable Citizen this Christmas

Growing up, I always remember my Dad being prepared. Didn’t matter where we were going or what we were doing, he always seemed to have the right tools for the right job. Most notably he always had his Swiss Army Executive pocket knife in his pocket. Used it for everything from picking locks to daily utility […]

Leatherman Style PS | A Minimalist Multi-Tool

Leatherman Style PS | A Minimalist Multi-Tool

In my quest to find tools, knives and other gear that fit my minimalist lifestyle I’ve been through several products in order to find the right one. One of those items is the multi-tool. Both Gerber and Leatherman are the leading manufactures and I’ve carried multi-tools from both in the past. In the past, they have always […]

Dual Weapons Deployment: The future of combatives

Dual Weapons Deployment: The Future of Combatives

Not every encounter or engagement is going to be a static target 25 yards away. Most attacks happen within what’s called the combative bubble. If you were to draw a circle around yourself that was 7 yards from your centerline, that is your combative bubble. Anything that happens within this 7 yards will more likely […]
